Most of the YouTube video download tools currently on the Internet download the entire video, but sometimes you may only want to save an important segment or essence of the video, especially for some long videos. At this time, you can use CutterTube, a free online tool with built-in editing functions. You can specify the time range to be retained before downloading, allowing you to easily save key clips of the video. Of course, if you don’t adjust the time range, the entire video will be downloaded directly. Supports up to 4K and offers multiple format options.

CutterTube is a YouTube video download tool with built-in editing functions that can specify the video clips to be downloaded.
CutterTube is a free tool that focuses on “cutting YouTube videos online” and is suitable for people who want to quickly capture specific clips from videos.
Most general download tools directly save the entire video, and then process it through other editing software if the user needs it. CutterTube saves this step. After users paste a YouTube link, they can set the start and end time they want to keep, then select the output format and resolution, and then export the required clips into a video file.
This is very simple for those who just want to save a certain step in an instructional video, a key paragraph in a speech, music, or a highlight of a live video.
The interface is also very intuitive. After opening the website, just paste the video URL, press start, and then adjust the clip range through the time field or slider. In terms of output formats, CutterTube supports common formats such as MP4, AVI, WMV, and WebM. You can also choose automatic resolution or specify 360p, 480p, 720p, 1080p, or even 4K.
There is no need to install any software and it can be used through a browser, which means that it can be used not only by computers but also by mobile phone users.
